4.9 Exciter Lubrication
See Graphic: wpmgr007139
The bearings in the exciter assembly are splash lubricated and rotate
at very high speed. It is important to maintain the exciter oil at the
correct level and change it regularly.
Check oil level in exciter every 50 hours of operation.
To check oil level, place plate on a flat, level surface. Remove the drain
plug (a) with seal ring (b). Oil level should be at drain plug threads. Add
oil as required.
Change exciter oil every 300 hours of operation.
To drain oil: Remove plug (a) from end of exciter and tilt plate up.
Note: In the interests of environmental protection, place a plastic sheet
and a container under the machine to collect any liquid which drains
off. Dispose of this liquid in accordance with environmental protection
legislation.
Place plate on a level surface and add approximately 118 ml of oil
through plug opening until oil reaches the drain plug threads.
NOTICE: DO NOT overfill. Too much oil in exciter can reduce
performance and damage drive belt.
4.10 Cleaning the Plate
Clean plate after use to remove dirt, stones, and mud caught under the
engine console. If plate is being used in a dusty area, check engine
cylinder cooling fins for heavy dirt accumulation. Keep engine cylinder
fins clean to prevent engine from overheating.
